Abstract Background and Aims Pregnancy in patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN) is characterized by an increased incidence of complications and adverse outcomes. The aim of the study was to determine the nature and incidence of pregnancy complications and maternal and fetal outcomes in women with DN. Method 61 pregnant women with diabetes mellitus (DM) type 1 and CKD 1-4 stages: 1 st. –29 patients, 2 st. - 19, 3-4 st. – 13 (age 29.7±4.9 years, DM duration 18.6 ± 5,3 years) and 72 pregnant patients with pre-existing (type 1) DM without CKD (age 28.2±4.8 years, DM duration 11.4 ±3.7 years) observed in 2010-2017 were included. The incidence of chronic arterial hypertension (AH), preeclampsia (PE), fetal macrosomia, fetal growth restriction, preterm delivery, cesarean section, stillbirth and the effect of pregnancy on kidney function were evaluated. Results Chronic AH was detected in 19.4% of women w/o CKD, in 10.3% – CKD 1 st, 17.6% – CKD2, 61.3% – CKD 3-4 (p &lt 0.05 CKD3-4 vs CKD1). The incidence of PE in patients w/o CKD was 12.5% (2-3% for general population), with CKD 1 – 24.1%, CKD 2 – 41.2%, CKD 3-4 – 38.5% (p &lt 0.001 when comparing all groups). Macrosomia was common in pregnant diabetic women w/o CKD (30.6%), patients with CKD 1 (41.4%) and CKD 2 (52.9%), but was not observed in CKD 3-4 (0%). In contrast, the incidence of fetal growth restriction was highest with CKD 3-4 (61.5%) compared women w/o CKD (5.6%) and with CKD1(13.8%) and CKD2 (11.8%), p &lt 0.05.Preterm delivery was more common in women with CKD, and its frequency increased with increasing severity of CKD: w/o CKD – 18.1%, CKD 1 – 48.3%, CKD2 – 61.3%, CKD 3-4 –84.6% (p &lt 0.05). Incidence of cesarean section was high and did not differ significantly between groups: w/o CKD – 62.5.1%, CKD 1 – 55.2%, CKD2 – 82.4%, CKD 3-4 –92.3% (p &gt 0.05). Stillbirth was observed only with CKD stage 3-4 in 15.4% of cases.Four out of 13 (30.8%) patients with pre-existing CKD 3-4 and none of the patients with CKD1-2 reached stage 5 CKD and started regular hemodialysis with a median follow-up period of 43.3 months (min 29.7 - max. 81.5). Conclusion DN has a negative effect on pregnancy outcomes, increasing the frequency of preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, preterm birth and stillbirth, however, fetal macrosomia practically does not occur with CKD 3-4. The rapid achievement of CKD 5D after delivery is typical for diabetic women with advanced stages of CKD.

The Way

Preeclampsia is a serious medical problem affecting the mother and her child and influences their health not only during the pregnancy, but also many years after. Although preeclampsia is a subject of many research projects, the etiology of the condition remains unclear. One of the hypotheses related to the etiology of preeclampsia is the deficiency in placental 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 2 (11β-HSD2), the enzyme which in normal pregnancy protects the fetus from the excess of maternal cortisol. The reduced activity of the enzyme was observed in placentas from pregnancies complicated with preeclampsia. That suggests the overexposure of the developing child to maternal cortisol, which in high levels exerts proapoptotic effects and reduces fetal growth. The fetal growth restriction due to the diminished placental 11β-HSD2 function may be supported by the fact that preeclampsia is often accompanied with fetal hypotrophy. The causes of the reduced function of 11β-HSD2 in placental tissue are still discussed. This paper summarizes the phenomena that may affect the activity of the enzyme at various steps on the way from the gene to the protein.

Objective of the study: Comprehensive assessment of risk factors, the implementation of which leads to FGR with early and late manifestation. To evaluate the results of the first prenatal screening: PAPP-A, B-hCG, made at 11-13 weeks. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study included 110 pregnant women. There were 48 pregnant women with early manifestation of fetal growth restriction, 62 pregnant women with late manifestation among them. Results of the study: The risk factors for the formation of the FGR are established. Statistically significant differences in the indicators between groups were not established in the analyses of structures of extragenital pathology. According to I prenatal screening, there were no statistical differences in levels (PAPP-A, b-hCG) in the early and late form of FGR.

No Gold Standard

Small for gestational age (SGA) and fetal growth restriction (FGR) is difficult to define exactly. In this pregnancy condition, the fetus does not reach its biological growth potential as a consequence of impaired placental function, which may be because of a variety of factors. Fetuses with FGR are at risk for perinatal morbidity and mortality, and poor long-term health outcomes, such as impaired neurological and cognitive development, and cardiovascular and endocrine diseases in adulthood. At present no gold standard for the diagnosis of SGA/FGR exists. The first aim of this review is to: summarize areas of consensus and controversy between recently published national guidelines on small for gestational age or fetal growth restriction; highlight any recent evidence that should be incorporated into existing guidelines. Another aim to summary a number of interventions which are being developed or coming through to clinical trial in an attempt to improve fetal growth in placental insufficiency. Key words: fetal growth restriction (FGR), Small for gestational age (SGA)
